The 2021 Top 8 Street Dance Battle, an epic celebration of Hip-Hop culture, will take place this year in Dublin’s Sugar Club on Sunday 17th October, also livestreaming on Top 8’s YouTube channel. Following sold-out performances in 2017, 2018 and 2019, this powerhouse event will see the freshest street dancers square off to do battle on the dance floor. Having competed in qualifying heats earlier in the day, the evening will see finalists flaunting their best moves, from the social dance moves of Hip Hop, to the rhythmic body movements of Afro fusion/Afro house and freestyle movements of Allstyles, to claim the top spot. Categories will be Breakin’, Allstyles, Hip-Hop, Poppin’, Afro fusion/Afro house, and there will also be a KRUMP showcase. The event will be incorporating many elements of Hip-Hop culture under one roof, being hosted by some of the best MCs in the Irish music industry, with pumping beats from DJs, and graffiti artists will be working throughout the day of the event outside the Sugar Club.
